It’s interesting for me, but I found so much of the graffiti with a “love” theme, that I was actually enamoured by the graffiti itself. Yes, a lot of it is political, and it certainly is a blight, but I have a collection of “love” graffiti photos from Venezia that I just adore. I’m a romantic… I can’t help it… I’m suckered by that and the locks on the bridges… Ah, to be in love…. It’s such a wonderful thing… While it lasts! 😉

Rob, a couple of groups here have been actively compiling photos of the *%@_+^# graffiti, and have now met with the city architect. I think things will start to happen. Yay! And, areas like the Rialto are high on the list.
